[ If the winner doesn’t supply a theme before Thursday 22:30 GMT, the organizer will select the theme. In this case, the winner’s theme will be used the next time we are lacking a theme on Thursday 22:30 GMT. ]
Having selected the theme, the winner will not be eligible to enter that week. They may however still submit an image, but it won’t be included in the voting.
Awesome entries everyone. Love the feel and lighting you had in your scene @TomZed
@ joshwinkler3d I never thought I would say a brain in a tank hooked to electrodes would be cute but " that’s a cute looking brain " @RayVelcoro very nice clean render there, made me want to break out my scrabble board.
think we all got stuck into that stills. I mean we play with blender… blender gives us much much more than rendering stills. it is blender!. It is just an idea… How would it be to create animations? stills do all… and nothing needs to be in hollywoods perfection… just for fun and glory.
Didn’t expect to see so many entries regarding this theme, some great too! I really liked the entries coming from xamenzie, TomZed, fdo, DM9 to name a few. My vote went to str11. I like the composition, colors and modelling. Only thing that could use some retouching is where the characters legs joins his torso. A little bit of mesh editing or a simple Photoshop clonestamp would have fixed that minor incorrectness.
Good Blendering guys, can’t wait to see all entries on next weekends theme!
Indeed, that was a tough decision. I almost forgot starting the voting thread when thinking about it, yesterday evening. In the end I added it to the list of open entries because DoriNori probably did “nothing” with C4D, Maya, 3ds Max, OpenSCAD and Kais Power Goo, … as well.
Edit: And, on a rather philosophical note, there is the question if the ‘nothing’ used in the making of this entry was new or if it was there before.
I voted for DoriNori, which is to say I didn’t vote at all. The piece reminded me greatly of the ‘Ballet for nobody’ performed by Rodrigo in central park, NY, on ‘Mozart in the Jungle.’ During the performance he briefly plays soccer with a bunch of kids, and is pelted with water balloons.
The ballet is performed in hopes that Rodridgo’s inspiration and muse (Mozart) will return. Here’s hoping that DoriNori’s experiment works.
My vote went to Evivivi, I think the surrealistic scene is spot on theme and the image also deserves credit for the 3d integration of the photographic elements. - Really cool.
My second favorite is the other brain by Joshwinkler3d, the way the electrodes are placed to appear like the eyes of the brain is a great twist. A slightly different framing / composition would have given more impact to the image though.
And not to forget Millanis entry, which is hilarious, - if you read German, that is. ^^
